Telegram Bot for Clients

Use @WeRemoteITbot to post jobs, review AI-matched applicants, move pipeline stages, message talent, and get daily hiring digests — synced with your weremoteit.com workspace.

Getting started

1. Tap Register · I want to hire (or ?start=role_client).
2. Complete client onboarding in chat or link an existing portal account with Sign in + /sync_profile.
3. Post a role with /post_job or the portal — publish when ready.
4. Review applicants with /applicants; you get instant alerts when someone applies.

Core commands

Reviewing candidates

From /applicants, pick a job → tap a candidate to see skills, experience, match %, and summary.

Pipeline buttons (Telegram)

• ⭐ Shortlist — moves the Kanban stage to shortlisted and sends a system message (talent name, company, job title).
• 📅 Interview — pick a time in this Telegram chat (In 1 hour, Tomorrow 10:00 UTC, or type your own). The bot books the slot, moves the candidate to Interviewing, and notifies them. Reminders go out ~24h before (if booked far ahead) and ~30 min before on Telegram, Discord, and portal.
• ❌ Reject (pipeline) — closes the pipeline stage and sends a rejection system message. Some disposition reasons may still require the portal.

Pipeline notifications are always saved to the talent portal inbox. They also go to Telegram or Discord only when the applicant used that channel to apply and has it linked.

Quick decision (separate from pipeline)

• ✅ Accept + note — marks the application shortlisted with an optional accept template (from /templates).
• ❌ Decline + note — quick reject with an optional template; does not run the same Kanban move as Reject (pipeline).

You may see both reject options on one card — use Reject (pipeline) to sync the hiring board; use Decline + note for a fast disposition with custom wording.

💬 Message one applicant vs 📣 Broadcast

When talent messages you, every notification includes a 💬 Reply button — tap it, type, send. Reply threads stay open until you send /cancel.

You always type in the bot chat. Who receives the message depends on which button you use:

• 💬 Message this applicant only — open one candidate, then tap this button. Private message to that person only.
• 📣 Broadcast (everyone on this job) — same text to every applicant on that role (not one selected person).

Where each talent reads it matches how they applied:

• Website / portal → Messages on weremoteit.com (not Telegram).
• Telegram → Telegram DM if they linked the bot.
• Discord → Discord DM if they linked Discord.

Send /cancel to end a one-to-one thread. Use /reply anytime to pick an application from a list (including old messages without a 💬 Reply button).

Tap commands & buttons

• Quick tips and /commands include inline buttons (Post a job, Review applicants, etc.).
• Slash commands in help text are tap-to-insert on Telegram clients where supported.

Daily applicant digest

Each morning (~09:00 UTC), linked clients receive a company roll-up of new applications since the last digest, then a per-role breakdown:

“Acme Corp — 12 new applicants across 4 roles (avg match 71%)” followed by each job line with buttons to open summaries.

You still get an instant alert when each person applies; the digest is a roll-up for busy hiring managers.

• /notifications — digest on/off for your account.
• 🔕 Mute on a digest row or job summary — exclude one role from the morning roll-up (instant apply alerts still arrive).

Instant new-application alerts

When talent applies (portal or Telegram Quick Apply), every client on your company with Telegram linked receives a message with match score and a shortcut to review. Failed delivery is retried via the notification queue.

Applicant filters

On a job’s applicant list, use All, New 24h, or ≥70% to focus on recent or strong matches.
